A correspondent of the Philadelphia Led¬ 
ger says that “ Llanfairpwichgunyugergob- 
wlehllaudyssilsogogo,” is the name of a Welsh 
parish, is pronounced as if written thus: Thlan- 
Airepoolchgwiugergol)Oolchthlandisiliogogo. ” 
This is important if true. We are almost 
ashamed to confess that we never prouounced 
it that way. We shall make no mistake here¬ 
after. It is too simple a. word to knowingly 
misprououuce.—Norristown Herald. 
A new Chicago theatre has two ‘ ‘ fashion 
boxes,” containing chairs, each directly In 
front of the customary proscenium boxes and 
so arranged, with the rails only slightly 
above the floor and the seats rising sharply, 
that a clear view of the occupants can be had 
from the other parts of the house. The idea 
is to let handsomely dressed women exhibit 
themselves, and the astonishing fact in the mat¬ 
ter is that they embrace the opportunity.

Messrs. K & J. C. W'LLIAMS, Proprietors of the 
Chestnut Hill Nurseries, Montclair, N. J., December 
27, 1881 , write:—“We nave kept no record that will 
show In figures the comparative results from the use 
of the Mmiee Complete- Manures. For several*years, 
however, our potato and corn crops have been grown 
by the use Of the Mapes Complete manures alone, and 
the yields have Invariably been more than ► allt.fac 
tory. Wp have fount Ir impossible to obtain smooth 
potatof» on our soil by using barn yard manure, hut 
since we have been using the Mapes Potato Manure 
we have experienced no further trouble. The fact 
that we continue to use an Increased quantity of the 
Mapes Manures each year, Is good evidence that we. 
tiiluk well of them, and we unhesitatingly recom¬ 
mend them to farmers."

" Among the makers of fertilizers ' Um Mapes For¬ 
mula nud Peruvian Guano Company ’ early took the 
ground that the proper way to build up a reputation 
was to court analyses of their fertilizers. We have 
recently been shown the returns of sonic TtuitTV an¬ 
alyses, made «t different experiment stations The 
samples were In part sent hy farmers and in part 
were taken by representatives of the stations from 
stuck ou sale. In 
NO CASE DID THE PERCENTAGES OF THE 
VALUABLE CONSTITUENTS FAI.t. SHORT OB THU AMOUNT 
CLAIMED. The valuation at Hie stations, as calculated 
from the analysis, averaged for the whole 
$1.15 PER TON man kk th a n the sel LING PRICE 
Some samples are worth rather more and some a lit¬ 
tle less, but the average Is as above stated. It Is but 
proper to add that the results obtained by the to- 
bfWQO growers in Connecticut, the growers of aspara 
gus. cauliflower and other * truck" on Long Island, 
and the potato and wheat Tanners of New Jersey, all 
show that the plants find In the fertilizers the value
